39:38

Sometimes all we need is a little push in a different direction for it to have the biggest ripple effect in our lives. In the case of Adam Ulery, this metaphorical push came in the form of a book recommendation over a coffee break at work. Adam figured it couldn’t hurt so he gave Rich Dad Poor Dad a shot and, as he put it, “became a fiend for infor…

3+ y ago44:35

44:35

It all started when Ben Mizes took on a sales job with a startup selling a platform for real estate investors in the single family business.

3+ y ago45:08

45:08

“It was going to be an additional hundred grand and change or whatever,” mentions Kimberly Marie as she casually explains her rationale to begin flipping houses. At the time, she had thoughts of going back to school and getting her doctorate degree. And surprise, surprise—education costs money. So in order to pay off any debt she’d carry as a resul…

107: BRRRR’s in Baltimore with Will Bowman 46:58

4y ago46:58

46:58

When asked about what he does for a living, Will Bowman answers, “Professionally, I am three things.” Will is a management consultant (full time), a real estate agent, and a real estate investor. But that wasn’t always the case. The advice given to many aspiring real estate investors is to find good deals and find someone with money to help fund th…

106: Finding, Qualifying, and Closing Wholesale Leads with Brad Clark 47:21

4y ago47:21

47:21

Brad Clark had no intentions to even begin investing in real estate. Circa 2019, the only thing Brad knew was that he’d been renting for three years and had no equity or networth to show for it. So he figured he might as well buy a property since he’s going to be paying for housing anyway—that way, he might at least see those payments return back t…

4y ago40:25

40:25

Nearing the end of his tenure with the military, Ashton Levarek wasn’t too sure where he was headed next. Out of the blue, his brother mentioned to him the opportunity he saw in real estate.

103: Residential Multi-Family House Hacking with Devin Moreno 42:07

4y ago42:07

42:07

Devin Moreno started with nothing but a stable job living paycheck-to-paycheck and $500 to his name. Despite coming from a family of investors (stocks and other businesses), it’s a surprise Devin didn’t actually make the jump to real estate sooner than he did. (And this was one of Devin’s motivations to succeed as much as he has so quickly.) So, co…

102: Bookkeeping for a Profitable Bottom Line with David Richter 42:45

4y ago42:45

42:45

David Richter began his journey early on, like many folks, immediately after he read Rich Dad Poor Dad. He was still in college at the time, but that didn’t stop him from finding a value-add property he would live in and ultimately lease option after two years, in which he then got out of tax-free. The financial savvy displayed in this first deal w…

Growing up, Alex Kies had no intention of ever becoming a real estate investor. As he said it himself, he was supposed to be a doctor!

96: Using Retirement Accounts to Buy Multi-Families with Josh Plave 41:34

4y ago41:34

41:34

It’s not often that people get started investing in real estate by being the one who helps others fund the deal. Why? Simply because people usually don’t have a lot of capital starting out. So they turn to institutional or private lenders for support. In the case of Josh Plave, thanks to familial upbringing and financial savvy, he embarked on his r…
